Re: Update: Medication help

[Guest guest]

Okay, I've been able to determine the first one, it's fluoxetine

.... still not certain on #2.

It may be something common. Then again, the patient just flew in

from South America, so it may also be something not particularly

common here.

Okay, so I spoke too soon. :-) The patient *is* taking fluoxetine

(I looked it up in a report on her I typed the other day), but

that's not what the doc is saying now. Looks like it very well may

be reboxetine (which, interestingly, is talked about quite a lot in

the anti-aging and self-medication (i.e., " smart drugs " ) groups and

websites on the Internet, I see...)

Still stumped on #2, though. It's probably something simple ...

ain't that how it goes? :-)
